    PAST AND PRESENT OF GREENE COUN'rY. 523

    this family, William Kloss, was killed while serving as a defender of the Union cause in the Civil war. There have been two children born of the last marriage of Mr. Hunt: Mrs. Annie Burgess, the wife of Albert Burgess, who operates her father's farm, he and his wife liv-ing at the old homestead; and Mrs. Mabel Brown, of Dawson township.

    In politics Mr. Hunt has always been a stal-wart republican but without aspiration for of-fice. He is a member of the Friends church, while his wife holds membership in the Me-thodist Episcopal church and both are ear-nest Christian people, neglecting no duty or obligation to thei!j fellowmen. Throughout his life Mr. Hunt has exemplified the truth of the Ernersonian philosophy that "the way to win a friend is to be one'' and there is no more popu-lar or highly respected resident in Dawson township or in all Greene county than John P. Hunt.

    AZOR R. MILLS.

    Azor R. Mills, whose name appears on the roll of Greene county's respected dead, left be-hind him a record of usefulness and activity such as renders it imperative that mention should be made of him in this volume. At the time of his demise he was the oldest inhabitant of Jefferson in years of continuous connection with the city. His birth occurred on the 11th of February, 1827, in Wadsworth, Ohio, his father being Colonel Harry A. Mills. His education was acquired in the village schools of Wads worth and in a boys' school called Twinsburg Academy. Coming west when a young man, he taught school in Wisconsin !or a brief period an~en came to Iowa, settling in Jefferson in the year 1855. Here he again engaged in teaching and no student of the his-tory of Jefferson in its pioneer times will fail to recognize the important part which he played and the influence which he exerted in all that

    made for the good of the pioneer community. He was a strong minded man, of clear insight into situations and of excellent character at all times.

    In 1862, following the outbreak of the Civil war, Azor R. Mills offered his services to the government, becoming a member of Company E, Thirty-ninth Iowa Volunteer Infantry. Going to the front, he participated in all the engage-ments of his command up to and including the battle of Altoona on the 5th of October, 1864, at which time he was wounded. A ball shuck him in the left arm that deprived him of the use of that member up to the time of his de-mise. He remained in the army, however, after being wounded, until honorably discharged at the close of the war in July, 1865. He made an excellent record as a soldier by his unfalter-ing loyalty to duty and his allegiance to the cause which he espoused. He afterward main-tained pleasant relations with his old army comrades through his membership in Thomas post, G. A. R., and took great delight in its campfires.

    Following his return from the war, in 1865, Mr. Mills was married to Miss Miranda Dyle Anderson of Jefferson, who was born in Ohio and came to Iowa with her father, J. Y. An-derson. They journeyed westward at an early period in the development of the Hawkeye state and became pioneer residents of Carroll county, but were living in Jefferson at the time Miss Anderson gave her hand in mar-riage to Mr. Mills. Mr. Anderson gave his time and energies to general agricultural pur-suits for some years and afterward turned his attention to the boot and shoe business, be-coming a well known merchant of Jefferson in an early day. He died here in the year 1866. His wife bore the maiden name of Mahala Ring, and was a native of Ohio. Mr. and Mrs. Mills became the parents of nine children, of whom five are yet living, namely: Mrs. Ada Dewell; Mrs. Grace Hogelberg; Mrs. Lillian Hurst; and Marcella and Vera, at home. Mr: Mills' one great ambition was to educate his children that

    524 PAST AND PRESENT OF GREENE COUNTY.

    he might make of them useful men and women and see them fill honorable places in society.

    His financial resources having increased, he built a fine home in Jefferson and put forth every effort in his power to enhance the happi-ness and promote the welfare of his wife and children. When he reached Greene county in 1855 Jefferson hardly deserved to be called a hamlet, for upon the site of the present city there was but one house--owned by Ueorge S. Walton. He liyed to see Jefferson grow into a thriving town with modern advantages and con-veniences, and in all the work of public prog-ress bore his full share. Alive to the political issues and questions of the day, he assisted in the organization of the republican party in Greene county in 1856 and in the same year assisted in organizing the Jefferson Methodist Epi1>copal church, of which he was a charter member~ remaining one of its faithful follow-ers up to the time of his demise. His worth as a citizen and his loyalty to the public good won him the recognition of election in 1865, when he was chosen by popular suffrage to rep-resent Greene, Ca.rroll, Audu!Jon and Calhoun counties in the state legislature. He proved an able member of that body and afterward served as county superintendent of schools for two terms, the cause of education finding in him a stalwart champion, whose labors were practical and whose efforts were effective. After his re-tirement from public office he became connected with Joseph Manning in the boot and shoe business and erected one of the first store 'buildings in the town. At an early day he purchased a fine half section of land adjacent to the northern city limits of Jefferson which will always be known as the Mills farm. He brought it under a high state of cultivation, making it a valuable property by the improve-ments he placed upon it.

    The death of Mr. Mills occurred on the 12th of March 1901. He will ever be remembered ' . by those who knew him as an earnest. Christian man of upright life and lofty purposes. He ever endeavored to shape his course by the

    Golden Hule, doing unto others as he would. have them do unto him. He was respected wherever known and most of all where best known. The circle of his friends was very ex-tensive and in Jefferson and Greene county he was esteemed as one who was ever just and upright in business, considerate and kindly in friendship, while in his home life he was de-voted to the welfare and happiness of his wife and children.

    WILLIAM GRIVEY.

    William Grivey is now living retired in the village of Dana and for many years was closely associated with agricultural interests in Greene county, and his careful management of his busi-ness affairs, his enterprise and keen discern-ment brought him a competence that now en-ables him to rest from further labor. A native of Illinois, he was born in La Salle county, on the 20th of May, 1853.

    His father, William Grivey, was a native of Prussia, and emigrating to America he worked in Pennsylvania for fifty cents per day in order to earn money which would enable him to pay the passage of his wife and five children to the new world. After seven years spent in this country he went to La Salle county, Illinois, and engaged in farming near Lostant. He w-as among the early settlers there and experienced many hardships incident to founding a home on the frontier. Although he was in very lim-ited financial circumstances when he arrived in La Salle county he lived to an old age and became very successful through the careful man-agement of his business affairs. He was a good Christian man, holding membership in the Evangelical association and his life was at all times in harmony with his professions, for he endeavored to closely follow the Golden Rule and. do to others as he would have them do to him. His wife, Mrs. Wilhelmina Grivey, was also a native of Prussia, and both died in La
